RE: Tilted nozzle on head
However, you can likely model the nozzle as a radial nozzle whose chord opening matches the largest chord opening of the actual nozzle.
Two issues will be involved: (1) providing reinforcing area for the head opening per UG-37, and (2) ASME rules for the nozzle neck itself.
Modeling the nozzle with largest chord opening of the actual nozzle will meet the requirements of issue # 1 above but will be conservative for issue # 2.
